A got a www.xxx.co.uk from Freeola. Normally, I can skip the www. and just key in xxx.co.uk, I can reach my site, but now I got an error page from Freeola, can somebody explain to me please.

One more question: why some websites don't need www? (like those free web space sites)You can only key in http://xxx.xxx.com (not http://www.xxx.xxx.com)

The www. is just a subdomain thing. It's like, you can access teh forums using either http://ukchatforums.reserve.co.uk or http://ukchatforums.com

Anything followed by a dot in an address is a subdomain, basically, or something like that. Turbo explains it better than I do.
